Sea level rise

It is a matter of urgent concern that different experts give different figures for sea-level rise predictions

Sir, Lord Krebs has written to the Environment Secretary stating that sea levels are expected to rise by 12cm by 2030, that is 7.5mm per year (Mar 7). The Met Office report on the floods tells us that sea levels in southern England have risen by 12cm in the past 100 years, that is 1.2mm per year. If Lord Krebs is correct, something truly biblical must be about to happen to our climate.
